BAKED CHICKEN BAJAN STYLE
"It is difficult to travel abroad without picking up an idea or two about cooking," Pierre Franey opened his 1982 column that featured this recipe. Spicy from hot red-pepper flakes and crisp from a mix of oil and seasoned flour, this chicken dish is inspired by a chef cooking at a Barbados restaurant. One guest, he wrote, "mistakenly assumed that the chicken had been deep-fried Southern style." Instead, it was baked, as it is here, yielding a crisp skin without nearly as much oil.

BAJA BURGERS
These are so good if you love the taste of roasted chile's. The peppers used here are not hot at all--so good for kids too. If you can' find whole canned chilis, chopped are fine, just the whole chile's make a better texture. Ortega brand is our favorite, but use what you like.
